Yours, Mine & Ours Smile

This is a simple layout. Photos are quite plain in color so it is easy for multicolour embllishements around them. 

Yellow doily on both sides to create balance. Three pink elements also created a triangle for a balanced highlight. 

I split some yellow acrylic paint around photo. 

The lightbulb banner is super cute. The foam gold letter is so much fun to use, even the acrylic paint can stay on it after dry.

This Is Our Happy Life

This photo was taken on the way they went to school. It was a sunny day at the Victoria harbour. I use this small photo so i can place those super cute but large embellishments. 

Die-cuts, stickers, wood veneers added together creates layers.

Enjoy Life

Eating is not her favourite so it's difficult to find a nice eating photos for my layout. Recently I took this photo and lucky it perfect matches the colour.

I prefer to keep my layout bit flatter for storage reason, these die-outs from the kit are prefect for thin layers!

HK Memory Chest Kit Club - Feb 2015

When I get the Feb kit from HK Memory Chest, i was a bit surprised. The paper comes from We R Memory Keepers and i never know they did such a great paper designs. i love their tools, embellishments but now i love their paper too! Thanks HK Memory Chest to bring this collection to us, i love the hand drawn gems, the  script font, the geometric shapes and also the unique textures.

You can see how much stuffs included this kit! i personally love the colourful puffy stickers from Gossamer Blue, as well as the die cut cork shapes from Teresa Collins. Another surprise is Embroidery stencil set from Amy Tangerine, it can be your guide to easily create unique detail with a needle and thread on paper or even fabric!

My contribution of two layouts to the kit:

It's my jam

My daughter's faces are too funny and i won't  miss any of them. To arrange three photos into a page, i organize them into a big square together with the title cutout, make it simple and tidy. This will also show most of the diamonds on background paper.

To apply the sewing stencil kit into this layout, i tried many ways. At the end i choose thi simpliest way to sew stitches around my square paper and one of the diamond cutout, i even not apply the stencil to do it, but I love my own way!

Cork piece is a good embellishment due to the texture and color.  It creates layers on your layout and also highlight the stickers on top. 

Be True To Yourself

This layout is about myself. After i have kids i rarely take photo or scrapbook myself. Kids become my whole whole and they are always cute enough to fit into my page, for any color and any theme! But today, i think i need to do something for myself, something to remind myself - Be true to yourself.

Simply just cut out some papers and layer them together for the photo background. puff stickers are cute as well as brad and the metal clip.

i love this Gold lettering stickers. It is trendy and easy match color on paper.

Miss You!

A scrapbook friend Adri is leaving Hong Kong to Zambia and I feel I need to do something for her, so I made a card. I am not a card lover or a professional card maker, but just want to send her my message so I tailor-made a card for her.

She is happy to receive this card, but what surprised me is, she ask me to put on a page!
OK, she is a scrapbooker and let me try something new for her. Then I used We R Memory Keeper's Lucky 8 punch to make a big doily, plus inking some flouish.

And this is the final look!

I hope she will like it and every time she look at her album, she will miss me too : )

Best wishes to Adri!
